UKC Logbook Description
Great climb - the first route on the face. Short tricky first pitch, (which can be avoided by taking P1 of Mirrors...) then slabs, then steeper in second half. 12 quickdraws, 2x50m, 6a oblig.

M Volorio 1977.

βeta: Climbed first half of Meduse, but fell off its crux, so went back down to terrace and climbed this route from the 6a+ pitch with the blank rightwards traverse. Really enjoyable. Well-equipped.
